Would you look Me in the eyes ???

Emma stood in the bustling city square, her heart pounding with a mixture of excitement and nervousness. Clad in a simple, flowing dress, she exuded an air of innocence and mystery. Her striking green eyes scanned the crowd, seeking her next participant.

“Excuse me, sir,” she called out to a middle-aged man in a business suit, who had just stepped out of a coffee shop. “Could you spare a moment?”

The man glanced at her, his curiosity piqued. “Sure, what is it?” he asked, adjusting his glasses.

“Would you be able to look me in the eyes for just one minute?” Emma asked, her voice gentle but firm.

The man hesitated, then nodded, intrigued. “Alright, let’s give it a try.”

Emma smiled and set a timer on her phone. As the seconds ticked away, the man found himself drawn into the depths of her gaze. At first, it felt like a simple exercise, but soon, he felt a wave of emotions wash over him. Memories of his own youth, dreams he had long forgotten, and a sense of vulnerability he rarely allowed himself to feel surfaced in those sixty seconds.

When the timer beeped, he stepped back, slightly shaken. “That was… intense,” he admitted.

Emma nodded, her eyes softening. “Thank you for participating. Sometimes, we forget how powerful a simple gaze can be.”

As the man walked away, Emma spotted a young woman sitting alone on a bench, scrolling through her phone. She approached her with the same request. “Hi there, would you be able to look me in the eyes for one minute?”

The young woman, surprised, looked up. “Um, sure, I guess,” she said, putting her phone away.

As they locked eyes, Emma noticed the woman’s eyes were filled with sadness. The young woman tried to hold her gaze, but tears welled up almost immediately. Emma felt a pang of empathy and held her gaze gently, offering silent support.

When the minute ended, the young woman wiped her tears, smiling weakly. “Thank you,” she whispered. “I didn’t realize how much I needed that.”

Emma squeezed her hand. “Sometimes, all we need is to be seen.”

Emma continued her journey through the square, each interaction leaving her more aware of the hidden depths within every person she met. An elderly man with a lifetime of stories etched into his wrinkles, a child whose eyes sparkled with unspoken dreams, a couple who rediscovered their connection through a shared gaze.

As the day drew to a close, Emma felt a profound sense of fulfillment. She had set out to see if people could look her in the eyes, but in doing so, she had uncovered a universal truth: the human soul yearns to be seen, to be acknowledged, and to connect on a level beyond words.

She packed up her things and walked towards the setting sun, her heart lighter, her spirit uplifted. Emma knew that her simple experiment had touched lives in ways she could never fully understand, but that was enough. She had found a way to make a difference, one gaze at a time.


Emma decided to continue her journey, visiting different towns and cities, always carrying the same question with her. As she traveled, her reputation grew, and people began to seek her out, hoping for a moment of genuine connection in an increasingly disconnected world.

She realized that by simply asking people to look her in the eyes, she was reminding them of their own humanity and the humanity of those around them. It was a small act, but one with the power to heal, to connect, and to transform.

And so, Emma’s journey became not just a personal mission, but a movement. A movement to bring people back to the simplicity of human connection, one look at a time.
